How to Introduce Yourself - Practice

Practice introducing yourself

Lesson Transcript

Let's practice.

Imagine you're Karen. Κάρεν.

Respond to Panagiotis's self-introduction.

Don't forget the corresponding article before the name.

Ready?

Γεια! Είμαι ο Παναγιώτης. Χαίρω πολύ. (Ya! Íme o Panayótis. Héro polí.)

Είμαι η Κάρεν. Χαίρω πολύ! (Íme i Káren. Héro polí!)

Listen again and repeat.

Είμαι η Κάρεν. Χαίρω πολύ! (Íme i Káren. Héro polí!)

Let's try another.

Imagine you're Panagiotis. Παναγιώτης (Panayótis).

Ready?

Γεια! Είμαι ο Μαρκ. Χαίρω πολύ. (Ya! Íme o Mark. Héro polí.)

Είμαι ο Παναγιώτης. Χαίρω πολύ. ( Íme o Panayótis. Héro polí.)

Listen again and repeat.

Είμαι ο Παναγιώτης. Χαίρω πολύ. ( Íme o Panayótis. Héro polí.)

Let's try one more.

Imagine you're Chrissi, Χρυσή.

Use the variation pattern and say, "My name is Chrissi. Nice to meet you."

Ready?

Γεια! Λέγομαι Παναγιώτης. Χαίρω πολύ. (Ya! Légome Panayótis. Héro polí.)

Λέγομαι Χρυσή. Χαίρω πολύ! (Légome Hrisí. Héro polí!)

Listen again and repeat.

Λέγομαι Χρυσή. Χαίρω πολύ! (Légome Hrisí. Héro polí!)

Sometimes in casual situations, Greeks introduce each other by simply saying their first name.

For example,

Χρυσή. (Hrisí)

"Chrissi."

Χρυσή. (Hrisí)

This is the end of this lesson.
